About Us The Dog Therapist

Meet Craig

Founder of The Dog Therapist, Craig has 25 years of dog training experience and working and trialing gun dogs. He has a proven track record in fixing badly behaved dogs fast. With his no nonsense straight to the point training he concentrates on training rather than rosettes and certificates.

Passionate about gundogs and basically all dogs in general Craig takes pride in his work by making sure that his clients and their dogs individual training requirements are fully met and everyone understands what to do and how to progress forward. Craig finds it really rewarding to help owners and novice handlers train their dogs and improve their relationship with their furry friends.

Watching owners fix their dogs bad behaviours at home or out on walks is always a pleasure as he knows and understands what it means to the owners to have their best friend being good boys or girls and doing as they’re told.

No Nonsense Dog Training

Over the last two decades Craig has designed a simple straight forward training method that is both easy for the owner and the dog to understand. With praise and correction based training students train with Craig to fix bad behaviours in the quickest most effective way.

Craig teaches his students how to communicate more effectively with their dogs by reading their body language and also being aware of their own body language too. Having a great understanding of your dog is truly the secret to well behaved, well mannered dog that you can enjoy for years to come.

Craig has achieved numerous awards and wins in working gundog trials and working tests and has achieved high standards using praise reinforcement methods of training to maximise the dogs enjoyment.
